First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study uses brain MRI scans to look for tiny old bleeds (microbleeds) in 200 adults with severe hemophilia or von Willebrand disease. Researchers want to see how common these microbleeds are and whether they are linked to memory or thinking difficulties. Participants will also take thinking and memory tests. The goal is to learn more about how bleeding disorders might affect the brain over time.
